Content

We take a break from living billionaires this week to visit the richest man in the Roman republic. We cover everything from how he got it on with his brother's widow to his invention of the for-profit fire brigade to his misadventures in the middle east. We also note that he was a consul of Rome.

Enjoyable episode, guys!! One bit of trivia you left out (I'm only half thru the episode, so assuming) is that Gore Vidal was a scriptwriter on Spartacus, who slipped in that oysters v. snails gay stuff.

Andy of course not knowing that Tusken Raiders travel in single file to hide their numbers rather than stormtroopers almost ruined the entire episode. However Sean's blatant Italian racism saved it.

Do an ep on the history of vaccination and make sure to talk about RFK Jr.

For example, is RFKJ still on the Vaccine Safety Task Force that Trump appointed him to in 2017? Did that actually happen? TIA

Bernie one of the Gracchi brothers lol... David Graeber (half) jokes that the Romans would have made use of the steam engine if slaves were not so plentiful and cheap for them
